The Kolchak Legacy

The Kolchak Legacy

The Kolchak Legacy Podcast has been created to bring our favorite disheveled reporter of the macabre (sporting his seersucker suit and favorite hat) before a new set of eyes and ears, with the hope of creating new fans and continuing the Kolchak Legacy for years to come. Join host Jason Stephens, along with various guests, on this journey into the supernatural tv series "Kolchak: The Night Stalker", the made-for-tv movies, books, comics, and the much-maligned reboot-- and then keep telling yourself, it couldn't happen here.
